"Power to the People:
The World of the Black Panthers" by Stephen Shames &
Bobby Seale

"Power to the People: The World of the Black Panthers",
a new book that was published during the Black Panther Party's
50th Anniversary Founding year - October 22nd, 1966 through Oct,
1967, also my birthday - comes at a time when the nation is once
again roiled by the consequences of racial injustice and debating
the persistent legacy of racism and poverty.

"Power to the People: The World of the Black Panthers"
is a window into the lives and times of Bobby Seale, Huey P. Newton,
and their comrades in the party's vital years. Stephen Shames
camera captured the charisma of the young Newton; Seale's focused
energy; Eldridge Cleaver's intensity; the disciplined style of
Kathleen Cleaver and Angela Davis; Emory Douglas laying out the
Panther newspaper; George Jackson's and Bobby Hutton's funerals;
and Panthers marching at rallies and feeding children. Virtually
all of the major figures are portrayed, with accompanying commentaries
by me, Kathleen Cleaver, Ericka Huggins, and many others that
touch on everything from politics to style.

In words and photographs, "Power to the People: The World
of the Black Panthers" tells the story of this revolutionary
political organization, which was founded on October 15, 1966
by Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton. Written in my own words,
with contributions by other former party members; the photographs,
including many icons of the 1960's, are by Stephen Shames, who
also provides an introduction.

"Power to the People: The
World of the Black Panthers" is now available here on my

"All Power
To All The People!" Righteous down home peoples power is what I advocated
in the sixties, and what I say today. That is, "...toward a future world
of cooperational humanism!" Beyond the myopic notions and strict doctrinaire
ideologies of past "politburo" state control command economy socialism.
More important let's get beyond the present extremist practices of avaricious
racist corporate monopoly globalizing capitalism having evolved a system which
concentrates 90% of all the political-economic power in to the hands of the one
percent cooperate money-rich around this OUR earth.

Democracy? HOW ABOUT Greater constitutional "direct"
democracy? i.e. greater peoples' decision making participatory Community Control
democracy? This form has a greater three dimensional democratic character. A true
peoples' democratic synthesis are ideas to begin to get creative with. "All
power to all the people," was my BPP sixties creative protest demand.
